Michael "Coco" Poliakovs, Freddie Freeman and Marcos Drougett performing the Levitation Gag on the 95th edition of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey show as seen in the 1965 television special HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH.
I believe Marcos Drougett was the grandfather of Marcos Emmanuel Barrigan AKA 'Zapata.' I am sure many of you know Zap's brother Henry. Of course Zap made the words "comedy movement" a mantra on the Red Show. He was also the father of the famous 'Wella Balsam" gag.
Pat.
